How this review is researched and published

Last updated: September 18, 2026

How reviews are researched

Reviews on this site start from first-hand experience of the program being reviewed. That experience is then set against research with people who have been through the same program — for Marketing Launchpad, 100+ alumni contacted on LinkedIn during 2025–2026, of which 20+ conversations are selected here.

How facts are sourced and labelled

Every material statement falls into one of four categories, shown as labels on the page:

My experience — personally observed during the program.

Kraftshala states — published or reported by Kraftshala, attributed as such.

Alumni reported — told to me directly by alumni; not independently audited.

My analysis — interpretation and opinion, not fact.

Statistics, quotes, screenshots, recruiter data and credentials are never invented. Where something cannot be verified independently, the page says so rather than presenting it as established.

How affiliate relationships are disclosed

Some outbound links are referral links. If you enrol through one, I may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate status is disclosed in the transparency strip below the page heading, next to the fee verification link, and again above the final call to action — before you click any commercial link. Commission does not determine what the review says, and no section of this site is paid for, reviewed or approved by Kraftshala.

Corrections and updates

If something here is inaccurate or out of date, write in through the contact page with the detail and, where possible, the source. Substantive factual corrections are made in the page itself and the "last verified" date on the affected field is reset. Time-sensitive fields — fee, placement information and course policies — are re-checked when the page is updated, and each carries its own source and verification date.

How alumni privacy is protected

Alumni conversations are private unless the person gives permission to publish them. Where permission is given, screenshots are published anonymized and labelled with an alumni ID, batch, role, research date and permission status. Where permission is not given, only aggregated themes are shown. Names, employers and salary figures are never published without explicit consent, and permission can be withdrawn at any time.

How update dates are determined

The "last updated" date reflects the most recent editorial review of the whole page. Individual "last verified" dates reflect when that specific fact was last checked against its source, and may be older than the page date.
